Re: BOWP Rules Changed ? My 2 cents are AOR in the past is equivalent to positive eligibility and implies eligibility has passed. Now SOMEHOW cic made "eligibility passed" to be the eligbility started, completed and passed on GCMS just to give us more setback. It looked like the trend that cic...

Thanks for your update. It sounds like the correct course of actions to me. Order another GCMS notes and see if eligibility has completed.

Re: BOWP Rules Changed ? Yes I too read that August 31 applicant got approved. What I am not sure is whether paper based and online applications are different, it could that August 31 online got processed faster than August 20 paper, and August 31 applicant dodged the bullet. My...

Re: BOWP Rules Changed ? In this forum there is already one BOWP case which applied on August 20, 2015, and refused for BOWP due to eligibility. Soon CIC might obliterate all good.

Re: BOWP Rules Changed ? Thanks for your update. I think I read it clear from CIC that the positive eligibility assessment is considered to be made once the status of the Eligibility field in GCMS is set to “Passed”. In other words, applicants with Eligibility not passed, not started or in...

Re: BOWP Rules Changed ? I have the same problem. This new rule looks catastrophic, and would potentially eliminate all backlog applications with eligibility not started. I had informed my legal representative about this change. As soon as he replies to me I will post my comments. If your WP...

I had spoke with a few helpful and polite agents in the past. Most of them are good. We usually can tell if an agent is bad soon after he/she picks up our call. CIC should have been very well knowing a lot of applicants don't have eligibility started. Can't help to think CIC added new rule to...

I looked at it too. it DOES say only AOR is not good enough, in addition to AOR they need Eligibility passed. I don't think it was the rule a few months ago in September. My GCMS notes has Eligibility empty for the last 8 months. Looking at your case, I am afraid this new rule may not get my...

Those who appeared in this article got their fames. There are lots attentions in general public on this article and applicants appeared in this article now, but not sure if CIC would do anything about it. I think the CIC better recognize those who contributed to this article can fully earn their...

FFS!! As if I didn't know!! Jason! I was __ <-- this close to post in my original reply "Is Jason Kenney your local MP, coz from your description it surely sounded like him". I was thinking that you can't be serious, but who else could he be?? TBH if I were to confront Jason or his assistant...

I can't believe this is happening. DAFUQ. Since you still have 2 weeks before it expires, re-apply to be on the implied status and buy another 4 months of time. Perhaps get an immigrant consultant? I don't understand why your BOWP would be refused with AOR in place, unless there are something...

Yep, clearing 6000 backlog applications in 6 months ... that's like getting 33 done per day. Yep I have heard this one before.

"Immigration officials said there are about 6,000 CEC applications in the backlog, but their goal is to process them all within six months. " Somehow I don't buy this.

Kudos to all participated in news press interview and made this news print came out. I am however wondering if the alleged remaining 6000 backlog will be counted into the cap or not. Looking at stupid comments posted on this story by narrow minded "native" Canadians has been a lot of fun.

June 2014 applicants got their AOR long before OCT 21 2014 - the cut-off date of CEC cap reached. Their AOR took less than 2 months too, instead of ours of 4.5 months. Right now I don't think June 2014 applicants' progress imply our application will start to progress. I will have a different...

@OP: did you went to the US for your conference as planned? What was your experience at border crossings?

So, after I think about it for a while, and did some google-ing, my 2 cents are I suspect the elimination of old 2014 CEC applications is not impossible, but quite improbable, especially not in the short term. Reference...

This is a response for June application, which had their AOR before OCT 21, 2014. I am suspecting that applications with AOR date after OCT 21, 2014 will never be processed, considering that CIC already returned applications received after OCT 21, 2014.

Thanks for sharing. There is no movement for applicants who get AOR after OCT 23, 2014, this sounds about right, but I am trying to relate what CIC will do about it in the next year. Remember, applicants who sent in applications after OCT 21, 2014 packages were returned. Oct 23, 2014 was just...

After I read this article, my feel is firstly, our cases should not be defined as "backlog". Backlog refers to uncompleted work that need to be processed, and it implies to issues caused by large workload. However in our case, our applications were sent in sooner than EE but did not receive...
